95' golf engine races during gear changes

Sep 20, 2003 1 Replies

I have a 95 golf that increases the engine speed when I change gear(manual). The dealer said it could be either the dashpot( $78.00) or a valve controlling the air flow/vacuum line? ( $211.00). Does anyone have any ideas how to confirm one way or the other? Both options are an expensive gamble! Thanks.


You mean in the middle of a gear change the revs increase? Do you have your foot on the accelorator by any chance?
